The inevitable meeting

The album 'Ndar is a kind of suite that is born from the encounter between two curious and complex artists who decided to mix their own musical paths and disrupt the cards of world music and mixing it with humor contaminating it with the classical writing, jazz , traditional and contemporary music culture.
Architects of this repertoire are the accordion, enhanced by a surprising expressive use of the bellows, and singing with his colorful language Color inserts made of recitatives in ancient greek in the song Mediterraneus, in Latin in the Aqua Requiem, in the rustic language in Pavana Ruzante returned from the war.
Just like craftsmen the Colombo-Cortes duo has honed the art of building a small jewel of great evocative pathos song form, thanks to the generosity of numerous artistic musician friends including Gianni Coscia who duets with Miranda Cortes accordion in Aquarium venitien; Gualtiero Bertelli, as a poet who recites his anger at the fate of Venice; Mauro Palmas and Maurizio Camardi delicate appearances Voria 'Ndar respectively Lute cantabile and the Armenian duduk, Dario Marusic solemn in L'oubli et le papillon in the sound of the Istrian sopela and violin, Paola Lombardo's dramatic vocal trials Wait L' output, Michele Pucci whom we owe the flamenco guitar in My country, Gianluigi Secco poet and reciter in the final poignant Paron perdido.
